A couple weeks ago I treated myself to a Tak 200/5.6, a small, slow jewel from Pentax's halcyon days. The 88 clams I shelled out was about twice what an average copy of this lens would command, but I felt I deserved a minty copy, so that's what I did.
I'm very happy with the lens, it works well with my K-01 thanks to focus-peaking and, especially, a Swi-View LCD viewer.
I'll let the pics speak for themselves. The only editing done was slight exposure adjustment and crop, otherwise I used ACR defaults.
Fawn eating a pear in my backyard. I didn't have an m42 adapter handy, so I held the lens up against my K-01. Awkward. f/8
From a swamp along the Musconetcong River. f/5.6
Mimosas are not native to my neck of the woods, so it's interesting I encountered this one. The little hummer taking a sip was a bonus! f/8
Another shot from the swamp. f/5.6
Would love an ID on these trees. f/8
